Disk space available inconsistancy - how can I fix it?

Hello

My iMac (27 inch, mid 2011) incorrectly displays available disk space or is corrupt.

Most data show than others (I know it's music and video).  This could show in this way that others use the iMac as well?

I have

people with disabilities and activate spot which is used for more information on the use of space.

used the built in disk utilities.

Run fsck in the command line.

None of this solves the problem.

It started when I moved the iMac to a synology Server data.

I think / hope it was the cache or temporary files which would disappear.  No luck at this point.

I am considering a reconstruction which may include installation of a disk a lot more.

Or I create a mirror image of the OS and applications and hover over the data.

This would allow to format me the drive in the unit and the copy of the OS and the application of return

Maybe reinstalling the operating system will not solve the problem (seems unlikely to me).

I'm looking for suggestions for this problem that could be easier and take less time!

Thanks, Ron

    I get this repeated error message: Windows - no disk "Processing Message c0000013 parameters 75b6bf7c 4 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c Exception" I cancel and it returns immediately. I can't emove it unless I reboot.  And then he returned. How can I fix it?

    It's a shame that we don't know anything about your system, because that would of course make things easier.

    So I'll just take a stab at it and offer this idea in general use for this message:

    If you don't see a message like this:

    No disk, Exception Processing Message c0000013 parameters 75b6bf7c 475b6bf7c 75b6bf7c

    Until you can determine what the 'real' problem is with your hardware, you can disable the pop-up message by making a registry adjustment.

    Before making changes to the registry, back up your registry with this free and easy to use tool popular:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Regedit

    Click OK to open the registry editor, navigate to the following key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows

    In the right pane, check the value of the ErrorMode setting.

    If ErrorMode is set to 0, double click on ErrorMode and set the value to 2

    (2 = off).

    Click OK to save the changes, and then click file, exit to close the registry editor.

    Reboot your system and check the things now.

    2 to the parameter ErrorMode stops at pop - up message but still material error log in the Event Viewer log.

    I use upstream, that allowed color spaces are CMYK. When I place a RGB file, preflight reports an error (very good). But when I add the Fx (effect) does not forward flight "Bevel and Emboss", report an error, which is really annoying. How can I fix? I like to have 'The transparency blend space' on "Document CMYK" and in the preflight profile "Fusion of transparent space" required: "CMYK".

    ===========================================================

    The system has RAID? If so, it's also very suspicious.

    This error is usually a driver problem and display adapter (video) driver is the most suspicious if she
    may be others. Antivirus/antispyware/security programs, equipment (heat) and major software problems
    can also cause the error. When you get to the section of the driver to use the Troubleshoot utility my generic
    methods in the next message and then return to the if necessary troubleshooting tool.

    Have you recently added hardware or drivers updated? Don't forget to look in Control Panel - Windows
    Updates to see if all drivers have been updated it. Other donor opportunities include the antivirus/anti-
    spyware/security programs.

    When you get to the pilot and sections of the memory of the troubleshooter check the following message to
    update drivers and memory test and then return to the troubleshooter if necessary.

    BCCode: 7F 0x0000007E which is also 0x1000007E

    Cause

    SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED bug control is a very common bug control. TO
    interpret, you must identify which exception has been generated.

    Common exception codes are:

    • 0xc0000005: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION indicates a memory access violation has occurred.

    For a complete list of exception codes, see the Ntstatus.h file located in theinc directory
    the Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK).

    Solve the problem

    If you do not have to debug this problem, you must use certain basic troubleshooting techniques.

    • Make sure you have enough disk space.
    • If a driver is identified in the bug check message, disable the driver or check with the
    • Reference of the manufacturer for driver updates.
    • Try changing video cards.
    • Check with your hardware vendor for updates to the BIOS.
    • Disable the BIOS memory options such as implementing caching or shading.

    If you plan to debug this problem, you may find it difficult to get a stack trace. Parameter 2
    (the address of the exception) must identify the driver or function that caused the problem.

    If the exception code 0 x 80000003 occurs, a hard-coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but the system
    has been launched with the /nodebug. switch. This problem should occur infrequently. If it occurs repeatedly,
    Make sure that a kernel debugger is connected and the system is booted with the Switch/DEBUG .

    In case of exception code 0 x 80000002, the trap frame provides additional information.

    If you do not know the specific cause of the exception, consider the following questions:

    • Hardware incompatibility. Make sure all new hardware that is installed is listed in the
    • List of Microsoft Windows Marketplace tested products.
    • Service driver or defective peripheral system. A service driver or defective peripheral system can be
    • responsible for this error. Hardware problems, such as the incompatibilities of the BIOS, memory, conflicts
    • and IRQ conflicts can also generate this error.

    If a driver is listed by name in the bug check message, disable or remove that driver. Disable
    or remove drivers or services that have been recently added. If the error occurs during startup
    sequence and the system partition is formatted with the NTFS file system, you may be able to use safe
    Mode to rename or to delete the faulty driver. If the driver is used as part of the system startup procedure
    in Safe Mode, you must start the computer by using the Recovery Console to access the file.

    If the problem is associated with Win32k.sys, the source of the error may be a third remote
    control program. If this software is installed, you can remove the boot of the computer service
    by using the Recovery Console, and then by removing the offending system service file.

    Check the system log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the
    device or the driver that generated the bug check 0x7E.

    You can also disable memory cache BIOS may try to resolve the error. You should also
    Run the diagnostics of material, especially the scanner memory, which provides the manufacturer of the system.
    For more information about these procedures, see the manual of your computer.

    The error that generates this message may occur after the first reboot during Windows Setup, or
    Once the installation is complete. A possible cause of the error is lack of disk space for installation and system
    BIOS incompatibilities. For problems during the installation of Windows that are associated with the absence of disc
    space, reduce the number of files on the disk drive hard target. Find and delete any temporary
    the files that you do not have to have files hidden Internet, backup application and.chkfiles files that
    contain fragments of file saved to disk scans. You can also use another hard drive with more drive
    free space for the installation. You can solve the problems of BIOS by upgrading the version of the system BIOS.

    Here are a few ways to possibly fix the blue screen issue. If you could give the blue screen
    info that would help. Such as ITC and 4 others entered at the bottom left. And all others
    error information such as codes of STOP and info like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA and similar messages.

    As examples:

    BCCode: 116
    BCP1: 87BC9510
    BCP2: 8C013D80

    Tcpip.sys - address blocking 0 x 0 00000000 000000000 DateStamp 0 x 000000000

    Hope the above information is helpful.

  • How can I fix the windows 7601 build bug not authentic?

    Like many people, I seem to have contracted the problem to build 7601. My copy of Windows 7 seems to think that it is not authentic.

    How can I fix it?

    I have absolutely no reason to believe that my copy of Win7 is not genuine. He is come pre-installed on a Compaq Presario that I bought in TESCO for several years and until a month ago, never threw to the top of the screen "not true." The Unit came with the sticker on top which included the series product key.

    I have read other discussions on this topic and they all seem to contradict each other and also seem to be quite old. They mention an update uninstall then advise against it. A related to a patch from Microsoft that no longer exists.

    I found online a tutorial that showed me how to operate the SLMGR-REARM in the DOS window. It worked for the first three times that my copy flaked out but of course, then stopped.
    I then discovered a tutorial that showed me how to reset the key "reg" to allow the RESET to work again. It worked only once. Since then, I was unable to fix it. In any case, it is all to treat the symptom, not the cause.

    When I finally got the license to operate properly, I checked for Windows updates, but my Windows updater told me that there is no available update and that my Win7 was completely up to date.

    Of course, I can't check the updates now that Win7 thinks that it is not authentic.

    I recently did a hot-swap to my HD of the Compaq Presario mentioned previously in a new machine. I used the method prescribed essentially disconnect all my drivers and put Windows in some sort of fashion 'sleep' before the Exchange. I forgot what it's called but it's a feature of Windows designed to minimize problems when hot-swapping. 7601 the problem seems to start a month or two after that, and I wonder if this is the cause.

    I had a number of profiles corrupted demanding a restoration of the profile in the registry as well, but they date to before the hotswap and return at the beginning of the year. I suspect bad sectors on the disk and wonder if it is maybe the cause also.

    While 7601 is does not interfere with my day-to-day work day on the machine (other than the annoying popups to warning), I want to fix because it is just gauling, knowing that it's really a genuine copy of Windows 7.

    I will continue to trawl through the other posts to build 7601, but if there is a solution to current day, I would be grateful to hear it.

    Wayne

    Well, after reading a load of complex technical solutions, install this, delete, change, etc. Someone suggested I just go in the key product Activation and it worked. Don't know for how long but I'll scan for bad sectors on the disk hard where the information is to be corrupt.
